Wired magazine published a story showing maps of the racial segregation of America -- and Detroit is "among the most segregated cities in America," the magazine notes.

The map is the work of Dustin Cable of the University of Virginia's Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service, and draws from 2010 census data. Accounting for all levels of zoom, Wired notes, the map includes more than 1.2 million PNG files, a total of some 7 gigabytes of visual data.

"It isn’t the first map to show the country’s ethnic distribution, nor is it the first to show every single citizen, but it is the first to do both, making it the most comprehensive map of race in America ever created," Wired proclaims.

Here is metro Detroit. The distinct line between black and white families toward the top of the map shows 8 Mile, which has long been considered the racial dividing line. Black people are in green; white people in blue; Latinos in orange; Asians in red, and all other races are in brown. Each dot represents a person. You can zoom in further, and check out other cities across the country, on the map here.
